Why do we let our past experiences label who we are? For a long time I have believed I would forever labeled the daughter of an alcoholic. How wrong I am! It has taken years but I have started to realize that I am my own person and I cannot let past experiences have a hold on who I am today. Don’t let circumstance define you.
As you may know from your own experiences I have lived with self-doubt and confidence issues. I think it is inevitable given the circumstance, however I cannot let it take control of me! There comes a time where we need to leave out past in the past and work on today and know our tomorrows will be better. Slowly I am working on my issues and becoming a more confident person in myself, something I encourage you to do if you are struggling with this issue as well. When you learn to let go of that ‘stuff’ and you let yourself shine it’s amazing how much better you will feel, and people will notice!
Don’t let yourself be labeled as a child or a parent or a spouse, or a friend/sibling of an alcoholic but rather be YOU. Have the courage to change you for the better… I promise you won’t be disappointed!!
Love,
